Greetings,
I made a starter yesterday for the Peace Coffee Stout kit I received from Northern Brewer. I hit about 13 degrees Plato on it or about 1.054. It's a 1400ml starter.
The yeast shipped from NB with the cold pack in about 3-3.5 days. It has a date code of 4/10/13 and swelled up just fine within about 2 hours.
I woke up this morning to find this:
And when I turn the stir plate off, it settle to this in less than ten seconds:
Am I just crazy or is this ridiculously flocculant? It smells fine yet looks really funky!
Anyone have experience with 1968 that would show me I'm not crazy?
Thanks,
Jason
